Book Reviews of Crochet Bags!: 15 Hip Projects for Carrying Your Stuff

Book Review: A nice idea
Summary: 2 Stars

This book is a nice idea, but sadly falls a bit flat. There are a couple of really good ideas, especially the timely string bag for shopping etc, but generally these are really quite unusable in the real world. They are not particularly attractive and quite gimmicky. The layout is excellent as are the pictures and the simplicity of the patterns. A great idea that doesn't quite come off.

Summary of Crochet Bags!: 15 Hip Projects for Carrying Your Stuff

The loopy, lacy, textured patterns of crochet are taking the fashion runways by storm. And millions of crocheters have their hooks poised, waiting for trendy new patterns for handhooked, high-fashion accessories. Noted crochet designer and author Candi Jensen is transforming the look of crochet with two great new books.

Crochet Bags! includes 15 projects ranging from a swinging cotton bag in hot summer colors to an elegant evening purse adorned with feathers. Specialty techniques include working with suede yarn, integrating beads into crochet, creating a fan-shaped purse, making a string market bag, and even crocheting with recycled plastic shopping bags to create a colorful and waterproof beach bag.

Packaged in Storey?s best-selling die-cut series, with the signature at-a-glance, chart-format instructions, Crochet Bags! will be irresistible to all the fashion-conscious crocheters who want to show off the new range of styles and looks that are achievable with a hook, a ball of yarn?and Candi Jensen?s great patterns.
